How should one take care of a child who has asthma?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Asthma: Asthma needs to be controlled well. Some children have asthma from severe allergies. If allergies trigger asthma than controlling allergies helps control it. Asthma education is very important. If a child goes to day care/ school than the teacher needs to be aware of it. There are different medications for prevention like singulair/ steroid inhalers talk to the pcp.
